TO MAKE THE
BEST REMEDY FOR
RHEUMATISM
Also a Very Fine Prescription For
Kidney Troubles, Which Any-
one Can Prepare at Home.
RELIEVES IN NEARLY
EVERY INSTANCE
A largo Eastern publication tolls its
readers of a number of pimple and safe
proscriptions that can be made at home.
The following, however, for the cure of
rheumatism and kidney and bladder trou-
bles receives the greatest praise, viz.:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound
Syrup Sarsapari 11a, three ounces. These
simple vegetable ingredients can be ob-
tained at any good prescription pharmacy
at little cost and arc mixed by shaking
well in a bottle.
The dose for adults is a toaspoonful af-
ter each meal and at bedtime, drinking
a full tumberful of water after each dose.
It is further stated that this prescription
is a positive remedy for kidney trouble
and lame back, weak bladder and urinary
difficulties, especially of the elder peo-
ple, and one of the best things to bo used
in rheumatic afflictions, relieving the
aehep and pains and reducing swellings
In just a short while.
A well known local druggist states that
the Compound Kargon in it does the
work. It is the drug which acts directly
upon the eliminative tissues of the kid-
nfys; cleanses the sponge-like organs
and gives them power to sift and strain
the poisonous waste matter and uric
acid from the blood, which is the cause
of rheumatism.
Cut this out and hand to some suffer-
er, which would certainly be an act of
humanity.

AUSTIN, Tex., May 17.-The local op-
tion campaign of Travis County bids fair
to be the. most obstinately contested in
the history of the prohibition movement.
Besides placing a large number of pub-
lic speakers in the field, the Pros are
publishing a paper devoted to the sub-
ject of prohibition.
The Antls are also extremely ener-
getic and it is therefore doubtful whether
Travis County is to go dry or whether
saloons shall continue to flourish.

AUSTIN, Tex., May 17.—The following
communication, dated May 1, was given
out today by tlie Department of Public
Health and Vital Statistics of the State
of Texas:
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council: It is usually the unexpected that
happens, and we want to be prepared for
any emergency that might arise.
During the past six months, for the
first time since the year one, there has
not been a case of yellow fever reported
in the whole Republic of Mexico, due to
perseverance in their efforts towards ex-
terminating that breed of mosquito that
conveys this disease. In consequence
they are better able to withstand an
epidemic than we are at present. It
would be a parody to have Mexico quar-
antine us because of yellow fever with-
in our State this summer, yet such a
thing is possible.
From Salina Cruz, on the Pacific coast,
across the isthmus, there are close rail-
way connections and fast time, and it is
now possible that a man during the pe-
riod of incubation of yellow fever could
reach Houston, or any other South Texas
point, in three and a half or four days'
time, taking sick at that point and pos-
sibly causing an epidemic. Such rapid
transit and close railway connections
were not possible even one year ago, so
you can readily see the necessity for out-
taking every possible precaution.
I think it is essential that what work
there Is to be done along sanitary lines,
especially as relates to mosquito exter-
mination, should be done immediately,
for after the middle of June this mos-
quito is propagated rapidly.
It is a recognized fact that it not only
requires pure water—usually rain water-
but that it should be at a temperature
of 65 to 70 degrees for their rapid propa-
gation.
I hope that you will see that your mos-
quito ordinances are rigidly enforced,
and that grass and wood cutting, drain-
ing ditches and general sanitary work
be done at once.
W, M. BRUMBY,
State Health Officer.
ENCAMPMENT DATES FIXED.
July 19 to 26 Decided on for Drill by
Young Texans on
Border.
Daily Express Austin Bureau.
AUSTIN, Tex., May 17.—The encamp-
ment for the Texas National Guard will
be held at Camp xviabry, near this city,
July 19 to 26. This was the decision
reached today by Adjutant General New-
ton of the Guard.
Owing to the limited appropriation and
the requirement of the National act that
the Guard must be completely equipped,
the camp will last but one week. The
Adjutant General selected what he
deemed to be the most convenient time.
It is during the dull season and during
moonlight nights, an advantage in camp,
and not at the first of the month, when
the men would be busy at home.
General Newton says the Secretary of
War has promised a full quota of Federal
troops to assist the National Guard dur-
ing camp, which will probably include
the three field branches—artillery, cav-
alry and infantry. If it were not for the
tact that the Twenty-sixth Infantry was
changing station* there would be a large
contingent of regulars ordered here for
the camp. The Twenty-sixth leaves tor
the Philippines within the summer. It is
stationed at Port Sam Houston.
The act of Congress requires that tho
National Guards of the States be
equipped as thoroughly as the regular
army soldier and the appropriation made
by the Government, as allotted to the
States, must be used for that purpose to
the end stated. In Texas the Guard has
a lot of worthless and antiquated equip-
ment, which must be replaced by the
modern accoutrements. Colonel Phelps,
Asisstant Adjutant General, estimates
that the Guard has about 60 per cent of
modern equipment at this time. The
equipment must be entirely completed by
Jan. 21, 190S.
The Adjutant General will make all
arrangements for the transportation of
the troops from their respective stations
to the encampment grounds, where they
will report to Mnj. Gen. William H.
Stacy, who will be in command. The
Adjutant General, as disbursing officer,
will arrange for the payment of the
troops for six days' service at tho rate
of pay used in the regular army. Each
enlisted man will be allowed 15 cents per
meal en route to the camp, and sub-
sistanoo, during the stay at the camp
and for the return Journey, will be fur-
nished by the camp commissary. Mounted
enlisted 'men in the cavalry branch will
be allowed 75 cents per day for the rent
of their horses, while the artillery will be
allowed $1.25 per day for draught horses
and $1 per day for saddle horses.
Mounted officers will be allowed to ship
their animals with those of troops or
batteries from their homo stations and
fuel and forage will be provided by the
camp commissary.
All enlistments are ordered filed with
the Adjutant General prior to July 1. as
are also records of the appointment of
non-commissioned officers. Drill is
ordered to be held twice each week from
May 20 to the encampment.

AUSTIN, Tex., May 17.—The State
Comptroller's Department is at present
besieged with inquiries from Tax As-
sessors, Collectors and county officials
regarding the new tax law.
As tho law does not go into effect, how-
ever, ur. til ninety days after the adjourn-
ment of the special session, State Comp-
troller Stephens says he has not had an
opportunity to familiarize himself with
the provisions and requirements of the
new bill. On this account, so far, none
of the inquiries have been answered.
Many inquiries have been received by
his department also in regard to tlie pro-
vision of the charter fee bill, which re-
quires county and district officers to
take out their commissions. Although
this law. also, does not become effective
until ninety days after the adjournment
of the special session, tho Comptroller
advises these officers to take out their
commissions at once. The bill provides
for the taking out of the commission
before these officers may draw money
from the State Treasury.

COLORING FOR THE HAIR.
Gray Hair Restored by Harmless
Methods Applied at Home.
Was there ever any woman pleased
when the first gray hair was discovered
in her head? Certainly not; when the all
gray stage is reached, the feeling is quite
different. Ah, but the getting thero Is
the rub. It is scarcely fair to criticise
those that do all in their power to remove
tho traces of the unwelcome frost since
it is not necessary to have wrinkles. Why
should they have gray hair? To children
it seems to be the standard on which age
is based. You have all heard the expres-
sion, "Yes, she is old, she has gray
hair." To the sensitive woman It cuts
like a tworedged sword. Gray hair, when
It comes prematurely, for the white
threads are frequently seen In the Very
young, may be .an inheritance traced
through a long line of ancestors. Again,
too intense application of tho mind, busi-
ness cares, trials, and troubles, all theso
causes show beyond a doubt that sub-
jects which disturb the brain or affect
the nervous system weaken the secretion- -
or coloring matter and blanch ttie pair.
The theory is reasonable since thosp who
do not allow anything to worry or annoy
them, but go on in the even tenor of
their way. have neither wrinkles or gray
hair. Why dark hair should be tho spe-
cial color that frost visits has never
been quite clearly understood. whilst
there are certain shades of brown that
seem never to change their color until
real old age comes, and quite frequently
not even then. Nature certainly is kind
to them. To those whom she has not so
favored, science comes to the rescif*, by
the mixing of eertain chemicals repro-
duces the orlgln.nl colorings, these ap-
plications. however, should not be made
by any but .-in expert. Still there are
several excellent restorers that can be
easily applied at home. The free use
of olive oil taken internally and ex-
ternally used on tho scalp nourishes and
strengthens the body and hair, and will
prevent the coming of gray hair. The
tiniest bit rubbed well into the scalp will
not make the hair oily; on the contrary,
will give it lift; and luster.
Walnut stain is a perfectly harmless
coloring for the hair. It is made by
slowlv boiling an ounce of bark in a pint
of water for an hour, then adding a lump
of alum tho size of a small hickory nut
to set the color. Apply with a tonic
brush from tip to roots. If this be done
Just before retiring proteet the bed linen
by covering the head well with a towel.
A non-injurious coloring is made from
black tea. six ounces, boiling water, one
pint. Hoil together for half hour, keep-
ing to the quantity of water. Strain and
cool, then add bay rum. eight ounces,
oil of lavender one drachm: glycerine,
four ounces. By substituting half the
quantity of extract of logwood for the
tea. a brow coloring is produced.—Phil-
adelphia Bulletin.
